Gaming servers · booter-proof

Host the server your friends can't get kicked off.

Minecraft, FiveM, CS2, Rust, ARK, Palworld — on NVMe with a 1 Gbps port, in India for sub-40 ms pings, behind Cloudflare Magic Transit so a salty player with a booter changes nothing.

Why BookMyHost Cloud

Built around the things that matter here

Booters bounce off

Every IP we announce is behind Cloudflare Magic Transit. Volumetric floods are scrubbed at the edge — no null-route, no "your IP is blocked for 24 h".

1 Gbps, unmetered inbound

Enough headroom for 100-player Rust wipes and modpack downloads without a bandwidth surprise on the invoice.

NVMe for world saves

Chunk loading and autosaves hit disk hard. NVMe keeps tick rates flat, and one free snapshot means a griefed world is a five-minute fix.

Hourly for events

Spin up an Ultra for a Saturday tournament, pay for the hours it ran, delete it Sunday night.

India pings

Noida today, Mumbai and Chennai next. 20–40 ms across most of India instead of 150 ms to Singapore.

Root access, any panel

Full root on Linux or admin on Windows. Install Pterodactyl, AMP, LinuxGSM or run the binary by hand.

FAQ

Gaming Servers questions

Is DDoS protection really included?

Yes. It is not a per-server add-on: our whole network is announced through Cloudflare Magic Transit, so every VM on every plan is behind it.

Can I rent a server just for a weekend?

Yes. Hourly billing has no minimum. Create the server Friday, delete it Sunday, and you pay for the hours it existed.

Do you offer a game panel?

You get root access and can install Pterodactyl, AMP or LinuxGSM in minutes. A one-click Pterodactyl image is on the roadmap.

Windows or Linux?

Both. Windows Server is included on Gaming plans for titles that need it; most dedicated servers run fine on Ubuntu.

Can I open any port?

Yes. No port restrictions; UDP game ports work out of the box. Magic Transit filters attack traffic, not your players.

How do I back up my world?

Take the free snapshot before a wipe or plugin change, or copy saves to S3 Advance with free transfer inside our network.

Server up before the lobby fills

Boots in under a minute. Hourly, no commitment — commit later if the community sticks.
